Photography Shop with Stripe & PayPal — Direct Payouts
With Pixalo, receive your earnings directly to your Stripe or PayPal account — no platform intermediary, no waiting, no hidden fees.
Why Platform Payments Cause Problems for Photographers
Platform holds your money
Earnings are first collected by the platform before being forwarded to you.
Delayed payouts
Between sale and payout, days or even weeks can pass.
Unclear fee structures
Between platform fees, transaction costs, and checkout surcharges, you lose track.
No direct customer relationship
The platform stands between you and your customers — even on payment matters.
Dependency on platform payment cycles
You have no control over when and how your earnings are paid out.
Your Advantages with Direct Stripe & PayPal Integration
Pixalo routes payments directly to your own account — full control, full transparency.
Direct to Your Account
Payments from parents go directly to your Stripe or PayPal account — Pixalo never touches your money.
